GHD Advisory appoints Sharon Sebastian as new Global Technical Services Leader
GHD Advisory welcomes Sharon Sebastian as its new Global Technical Services Leader, bridging the gap between GHD Advisory and Technical Services. In her role, Sharon will raise the profile of the Technical Services portfolio, with a focus on developing and integrating global Service Line communities within GHD Advisory. Her responsibilities include coordination, collaboration, and advocacy across the Enterprise.
“Sharon’s appointment as GHD Advisory's new Global Technical Services Leader is a strategic move that highlights our commitment to excellence” says Richard Fechner, GHD’s Advisory’s Global Executive General Manager. “We look forward to the positive impact Sharon will undoubtedly bring to GHD Advisory, driving innovation, fostering collaboration, and further solidifying our position as a global leader in the industry."
Sharon brings a wealth of experience from her 17-year career. In her most recent role as the APAC Service Line Leader for Engagement and Communication, Sharon led technical communities, supported technology adoption, facilitated resource access, capability building and encouraged internal knowledge sharing and externally through thought leadership initiatives. Sharon's achievements include a significant increase in global collaboration across our economic regions, successful partnerships across diverse disciplines, and establishing a presence in Northern Territory and South Australia, further expanding the team’s footprint across the Asia Pacific region.
Working through a one GHD lens, her key successes include driving innovation and collaboration to elevate GHD’s technical service offering through the Engagement and Communication Service Line - with the introduction of digital engagement tools such as GHDPulse - a sentiment analysis tool and expanding capability through the strategic communication services offered by GHD Creative.
"I’m excited to support the growth in GHD Advisory's technical capability and client experience by promoting an inclusive and collaborative culture,” shared Sharon, “My goal is to build on our strengths, encouraging client-led global communities of practice. Leveraging my experience, I plan to develop a strategic approach to globalise our operations across the Enterprise, emphasising the value of diverse perspectives and technical capabilities."
